Sat down and Did Work™ today, wrapping all of the necessary revisions for the existing chapter for part one of The Forgotten Princess. I still need to draft & fix up the new chapters added for the 3rd POV character, but that should be easier for me to tackle now that edits are done.

A review can be as simple as "this book was fun, I liked it"

Dear manager, last week: 1. Wondered where have all the good men gone? 2. Where are all the gods? 3. Where's a street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds? 4. Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed? 5. I tossed and turned and dreamed of what I need.

Should have this month's coloring page done by tomorrow. It's similar to the abstract organic landscapes I've been messing with since January. The Path and higher get them -> patreon.com/fallenlights

The sheer fact my book is in multiple libraries, and in one of them, has been checked out back-to-back-to-back for the last six months or more is absolutely amazing to me. I love that people are utilizing libraries, for my books or otherwise.

Happy Sunday, friends. Here's today's moment of cute. See this greedy squirrel try to juggle two pecan shells at the same time. Inevitably, he had to leave one behind as he scurried off with the other. Here is today's reminder, too, that we're in this together. Much love to you all.

JUST TWO SALES AWAY FROM 90!!! NEARLY THERE!!! 😭🎉💪✨ mybook.to/aBMB

marketing for those of us who suck at graphic design be like

Made a new feed because I wanna see more bots. Robot art feed. Use #Robot and #Art in post text to post to it! Working on some more specifics about it so I will fine tune shortly. #SciFi #Feeds

Excellent opportunity to read a great book!

You know how sometimes you forget art you've painted? Yeah... Found this one on the bottom of a pile on the finished art shelf. 2014 - watercolor Forest's Hart Fallenlights.net has prints

This bao... is staring into your soul. "eat me," it says with glee. 🍽️ Bon appetit.

The Dark Side of Super's cover (and dinkus) was designed by @fallenlights.net. The original cover art actually hangs in my office. She's currently also working on my cover for The Backwards Knight.

Happy Saturday, friends. Today's moment of cute brings us a squirrel who's found one of the squirrel-food pecans we left out. Local pecan farm sells bags of what they call squirrel food, which are pecans that didn't pass muster. Anyway, shit's still coming, and you know what? We'll keep standing.

Someone take my phone away I want to earnestly post shit like love is the only thing that matters

Let's go.

Yup. It fucking hurt like hell the first time I owned up and apologized for a big mistake. So much of my ego was wrapped up in being right, rather than doing the right thing. I still make mistakes (we all do). It's easier for me to own up to them now, and to try to mitigate and learn from them.

I'm plotting on ur rise bro. I'm literally up in the lab scheming on beautiful abundance for you. I'm cooking up ways for a rising tide to lift all of our boats. I'm praying for your gains. I'm lighting a candle to your inevitable splendor dude

I am working on re-drafting The Forgotten Princess, the follow up to my novel The Backwards Knight (coming soon.) These are the first entries for my eldritch fantasy series, my love letter to all the books, movies, etc. that fed my imagination growing up. The first novel(s) I took to The End.

Guess what I'm drawing Of course it's wings #Art #OC #Azra #WIP

This snippet is my magic system for The Backwards Knight (and thus, The Forgotten Princess and beyond). Made this test video, not 100% sure on the audio track, but it works as a start. Might refine it later, if I can figure out better audio. Or just use my regular voice. #BookTok

Here's a moment of cute from yesterday's wildlife camera snaps. Happy Friday, friends.

Have migraine, will curl up into a ball and weep.

Another day, another slew of words slung for The Forgotten Princess. Ahead of schedule, which is nice, especially when dealing with a migraine that's holding on.

#SFFChat Q3: We often talk about setting as its own character. What nonhuman, inorganic feature of your work could you think of in this way? In The Backwards Knight/The Forgotten Princess, there's a character like this, or so I like to think as it plays its own role throughout the story so far.

#SFFChat Question 2: Share a piece of media *other* than a book that's influenced your writing! Music, music really plays a huge part in influencing my writing sometimes. Helping to vibe. But, specific media? Dead Space, the video game, influenced part of my current WIP, The Forgotten Princess.
